Brilliant finale to the end of 2022!

Cranbrooks last game of the 2022 ended with a CELEBRATION🎊 with a win vs. the PCS penguins🐧.  It was also the first game we had a mascot join the game✨ 
Putting the Cranes on the board was from Sandra Bae @ 14:26.  This was her first goal of the season.  Timko followed up with an unassisted goal @ 13:37.  The Cranes kept the momentum going with goals from Timko with assist from defense Phoebe Knoer @13:02 & Timko with assist from Milani Sheth @ 6:45🏒on a penalty kill. As the buzzer sounded for the end of the first period, defense Knoer put one in the net with assist from Timko!
Goalie Mira Norton started in goal only allowing in one goal @5:44 in the first.

With the 2 solid lines of defense, the Cranes were utilizing the defense to open up the ice making great passes from forward to D back to forwards to score.  At 11:32, Timko score with assist from Bae.  Bae has been dubbed Shani with her tenacious attitude and positioning at the net after the infamous NHL Detroit Red Wing Brendon Shanahan.  With 3:24 seconds left in the 2nd, forward Timko put one in the back of the net with assist from defense Lela Lantigua.  Goalie Grace Sui took the ice for the 2nd period with confident saves. 
With excitement from the team, they danced it out at the beginning of the 3rd with the ‘Village People, Y.M.C.A’.  At 8:35, Timko & Lela Lantigua teamed up again to score.  Captain Anna Timko & one of the leading goal scorers in the division showed true humbleness in the game inspiring younger players of true sportsmanship! With 36 seconds left in the 3rd, Timko & Knoer ended the game with one last she shoots…she scores✨
Goalie Grace Sui finished the 3rd only allowing one goal.  Being new to goal tending, Sui was able to make a pass from the net to keep the play going in the 3rd.  
Both goaltenders  has improved each game with both Norton & Sui.  Their maneuvering in the crease has allowed them to reduce goals and kept rebounds down✨
Brooks said at the end of the game ‘Out team has finally come together’!!  
A perfect ending to 2022…We are looking forward to 2023 and what we will see from our Crames🏒💪🏼🫶🏼
